In India's land of wonder and light,
A shaggy friend roams day and night,
With a snout so long and furry coat,
This creature's famous, you'll take note.

He scurries here, he scurries there,
Through every spot, he does not care,
His shaggy coat a wondrous sight,
It makes him the star of the night.

Kids all love to see him play,
And they shout, "Come back another day!"
He runs and jumps with so much glee,
So full of joy, so wild and free.

In India, he's known far and wide,
With his snout, he'll sniff and stride,
His coat is shaggy, but oh so neat,
His fame, forever complete.
